Episode Synopsis

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson
Bloody Weekend in America: Church Massacre, NC Marina Shooting, NYC Mayoral Shock & Federal Troops in Portland
It was a violent weekend across the U.S. We break down two deadly mass shootings—a Michigan church attack during Sunday service and a North Carolina marina shooting where the suspect fled by boat—plus a political earthquake in New York City as Mayor Eric Adams drops out to block socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani. We also cover the federal deployment to “war-ravaged” Portland, OR after clashes outside an ICE facility, and updates from country music and true crime: Dolly Parton postpones her Las Vegas shows on doctor’s orders, and former prosecutor Tommy Pope argues Susan Smith should remain in prison as her 2026 parole nears.
